Wanderers boss Gareth Ainsworth joked that he may need to ring the powers that be and ask them to stop scheduling Tuesday night games for his side at Adams Park after their latest attempt to break a three-year winless run ended in a 1-1 draw against Accrington.

You have to go back to March 6, 2012, a 4-2 victory against Leyton Orient, for the last time that Blues won a league match on home turf on a Tuesday night.

Goals from Sam Wood and Alfie Mawson were unable to break the sequence as Terry Gornell and Piero Mingoia were on target for the visitors.

“With the amount of chances we created tonight we had enough to win two or three Tuesday night games,” said Ainsworth.

“It’s one of those things and at least we’re away from home next Tuesday and we can have a look at that one. I think I’m going to ring the FA and see if we can change all our Tuesdays to Wednesdays.

“Performance is what I’m about; no injuries is very important and we’ve got to get the legs back now because we’ve got a good game next week against Luton.”

Sam Saunders struck a post and Paul Hayes, Mawson and Wood all came close to grabbing a winner but the hosts were unable to make their domination count as they slipped back to third in League Two.

The result means Wanderers have gathered four points from their back-to-back home fixtures, a return which the Blues boss was more than satisfied with.

He said: “I think 19 shots on goal is one of the stats so it’s great to create that many chances. The disappointment is that we didn’t convert. The ratio of conversion isn’t great there.

“Tired legs, tired game but I’m proud. Four points out of the last two games – I think most people would have taken that and they’d have probably seen it the other way around. If we keep doing that towards the end of the season we’ll get promoted.”

The timing of Accrington’s equaliser rankled with Ainsworth as Gornell’s bundled effort came a matter of seconds before the referee bought the first half to an end.

Wycombe saw out Saturday’s game against Shrewsbury superbly when holding a 1-0 lead and their failure to get to half-time in front was a source of frustration for the manager.

He said: “We played some of the best stuff I’ve seen so far [in the first half] and hopefully the fans can remember the first half rather than the start of the second haf because it was excellent.

“We created many chances and their ‘keeper made some great saves, to be fair, and some good blocks from their defenders. Performances are what I’m about and that’s great. It was a killer blow just before half-time.

“It would have been nice to have seen the game out professionally. We do it at the end of games and now we might have to start having a look at half-time just before we get some messages from the coaching staff, get your legs back and go again in the second half.

“Hitting the post – I don’t know how that ball has not gone in and then Alfie’s volley towards the end. We’ve had lots of chances tonight so there’s no panic from me.”
